The hotel is about 20 minutes walk from the Hoe and 25 Barbican, decent position for town also. Nice spacious room, decent size tv, very comfortable bed and good shower. Good room cleaning every day. No complimentary water, would have been nice. Hotel is quiet inside but a lot of traffic noise from busy road outside. Good swimming pool and sauna. Convenient restaurant attached to hotel, great service both breakfast and in restaurant. I'm gluten free catered for me very well, staff helpful. Only drawback restaurant seemed to only have two gluten free dinners, but food was good. Breakfast very good provided gluten free choices, excellent staff.

The whole hotel smelt like an ashtray, guests smoking in their rooms as there was a very strong smell of cigarettes, every where. We even complained at the front desk about someone smoking weed somewhere near our room. It was so strong you could smell it in our shower room. They said the cleaner had already made a note of it on their computer, but there was no apology. The place is in need of a lot of money spending on it. Our room was old, very tatty, smelly and dirty. Stains all over the carpet and walls. Nets had a large brown stain on them and so did the skirtings. You would expect this standard from a cheap budget hotel, not one charging these rates. Have nothing positive to say about this hotel. As soon as you walked in you were met with a foul smell of damp in the reception area. We stayed for 2 nights, we did try to book somewhere else as soon as we looked around our room, but there were no other hotels in the area available at short notice. We slept ontop of the bed covers as they did not look or smell clean and we laid all the room towels over the carpet because it was that dirty and stained. Would 100 not recommend this hotel to anyone. Best Western get your hotels sorted out, this is totally unexceptionable. This the second tatty hotel of yours I’ve been too, never EVER again.

A lovely hotel right in the heart of town. Spotlessly clean and well equipped rooms but one issue for me was that the air conditioning units seem to be centrally limited to 22 degrees. This is far too warm imo and while it may not bother others would stop me booking again, at least during the summer. Food in the bistro also very good and pool area great also.

Nice from the outside, but needs improvement inside The hotel has a charming exterior and is located in a great spot in Plymouth, which initially gave us high expectations. However, the interior felt a bit tired and in need of maintenance. The room wasn’t as clean or comfortable as we had hoped, and some facilities seemed outdated. With a little more care and attention to detail, this place could really live up to its potential. We hope to see some improvements in the future.

Lower than average,

I know this hotel well, so i was not under any illusions of grandeur. But was disappointed for the following reasons. towel heater was stuck on making the room very hot, (no aircon) Breakfast no tea or coffee offered, no hot breakfast offered, was in the the restaurant for over 30 minutes and was not ask once if I needed anything.

Our hotel room was the worst we have EVER stayed in! We looked through the window at a bank of air con units which kept us awake all night with their constant throbbing noise even with the window closed. On top of that there was a squeaky fire door in the corridor right next to our room which was constantly being opened by late night revellers. I would not wish this room on my worst enemy!!!!!!!
